About
Indiana Battle of the Books is an academic extracurricular activity for 4th and 5th grade students who enjoy reading challenges and competition. Its purpose is to foster the enjoyment of reading high quality books and to come together in friendly competition. With a collaborative partnership between local school corporations, Evansville Public Libraries, and other community leaders, we look forward to seeing our teams at this year's competition in April. Thank you for every person who makes this event possible.
